I am not fully up to speed on precisely what it is the pilots have actually
done so far.
I saw some references to "by the book operation", but has anything else actually taken place?
It must surely be more than a little coincidental that a diverse group of 50 or so pilots, who appear to have been perfectly satisfactory over the last few years, should suddenly and simultaneously become insufferable and intolerable to Cathay's management.
Methinks Madam Cathay doth protest a little too much.
Read/listen to ALPA's Marty Levitt on "confessions of a union buster", especially about taking hostages.

Predictable tactic.
